Data Collection (Fieldwork)

Before launching your study, be sure to run a couple tests to ensure the redirects are working correctly and any URL variables are being passed. Once you have tested, reach out to us for confirmation that we have collected the correct test customparticipantid value(s).

If all testing is successful, you are ready to launch!

Launching a collection

On the Dashboard, select the 'Collections' tab.

From there, select the 'Edit' option on the right.

This will open the 'Edit collection' page which allows you to adjust a number of fields including:

The ‘Do not change the current state’ message is there to provide caution as a collection can not be regressed through the stages. Once it’s set to a stage, our assistance is required to set it back.

Set the collection state to 'Live' just prior to launching. The 'Live' state indicates the collection is currently in the field. All results collected when 'Live' will be reported on the Dashboard in near real-time.

Monitoring the collection

Once you have launched your study, you are able to monitor the progress directly from the Dashboard. This is done by selecting the 'Collections' tab again.

From this page you are able to see the collection stats for all of your studies (current and past).
